Garden Fun

I was fortunate to be able to return home on time the past few days, early enough to spend some time with the girls prior to bed time. Though the weather hasn’t been really all that nice, it was at least dry and light out, so out in the garden we went. We discovered that there were red dots scattered around the raspberry bushes and then realized that… the raspberries were out! Yippee. And boy were they sweet. Bibou couldn’t wait to pick them (and into her mouth they went as quick as can be). Angel though, wasn’t terribly impressed by them… and spit it out immediately! Well, at least she did try them. She’s now gotten the hang of rocking herself on the rocking horse and can go pretty high! She had lots of fun rocking herself and watching Bibou and Daddy goofing around playing ‘plane’. We were having so much fun that I couldn’t help myself grabbing the camera and snapping some shots. Through these pix, we’ve just realized that Angel’s hair has turned quite brown, almost a reddish color, esp as compared to Bibou’s hair, which is a lot darker now. Though I guess one shouldn’t really compare the kidlets, I’m just so awed at how similar and yet different they both are. But the most amazing phenomenon to watch is the bond between the both of them, (and I really really REALLY hope that I’m not jinxing it by stating it out loud), Angel’s face absolutely lights up whenever she sees Bibou entering the room, or when she wakes up; Bibou, who is normally always grouchy, won’t grumble a bit if it was Angel waking her up (and even if it was quite ‘roughly’), they love to cuddle and hug, they just wanna be together. I really hope this will continue for…ever, as it was my biggest reason for trying for another child: so that Bibou wouldn’t be alone, especially when we’re gone.

Enjoy these new pictures taken yesterday. I thought the one of them feeding each other was hilarious. We had fun. Bibou does enjoy being a big sister.
